Approaches Wait Arrival of State Troops 
—Large Force From: Trinidad Marching 
Against Militia at Ludlow 


Trinidad, Colo., April 23.—With the 
foll of yesterday's fighting still un- 
known, three mining properties burned 
to the ground and others reported de- 
stroyed, and the fate of thirty refugees 
of the Empire mine who took: refuge 
in the stope still in doubt and a rap- 
idly increasing army of armed men 
still active,- the situation to-day in 
southern Solorado is more critical than 
at ‘any time during the strike: Eleven 
are said to have been killed yesterday 
in the fighting near Aguilar and a 
score are reported missing. 

Property damage is estimated at 

200,000. The fate of the Southwest- 
ern mine is unknown The time of 
the arriyal of state troops is indefinite, 
and there Is no immediate prospect of 
relief from the conditions that have 
existed in the strike district since early 
Monday Even the arrival of the state 
troops may not serve to quell the dis- 
orders. Large bodles of armed men 
areXreported near the railroad ap- 
proaches to the Agullar district, and 
reports from these points state that 
the attack may” be made’ upon the 
national guardsmen 
Adjutant-General Chase called on 

ng-distance telephone thid morn- 
*. declared John’ Lawson, tnterna- 
tional board member of the U. M. W. 
of A. “He told me he was coming 
here In the Interest of peace I told 
him that there could be no peace where 
there was no justice.” 

Twenty-five armed men left Wal- 
senburg early to-day in the direction 
of Aguilar and Ludlow Armed.-men 
from northern New Mexico are still 
coming into the district and a large 
force from Fremont county is said to 
be marching across Huerfano county, 


Large numbers from Trinidad early to- 
day are reported to have joined the 
Ludiow strikers, who have been en- 
trenched in the Black hills northeast 
of Ludlow since Monday night. 

Desultory firing occurred this fore- 
noon at Ludlow The main body of 
armed strikers was believed to be in 
the vicinity of Rugby and Primrose. 
Asmat number of guards was pre- 
pared to resist an attack at Rouse. A 
large body of armed men was reported 
marching from Trinidad against the 
militia at Ludlow. 

“If you have any help you can send, 
rush it to Rouse Immediately, Strik- 
ers ,.have big bunch and are coming 
thilé way.” 

This message 


was received at the 
Trinidad offices of the Colorado Fuel 
and Iron company eariy to-day from 
Superintendent W. G. Deck. An earlier 
message said “Primrose superintend- 
ent and last of his men arrived, stating 
strikers have just reached Primrose 
and they got out ahead of them.” 

Another large body of armed men 
still Is besteging the wrecked mining 
camp of the Southwestern Ftel com- 
pany at Empire, according to a tele- 
phone report from V. D. King early 
to-day, just before the wires went 
down. The King family have been 
prisoners in their home since yesterday 
noon. 


(BUSINESS BOYCOTT. ,/ Attitude 


The fate of J. W. Sipple, president 
of the company, who with twenty to 
thirty others, including several women 
and children, were reported entombed 
in the mine stope, was unknown. -A 
report from Aguilar to Major P. J. 
Hamrock stated that the entombed are 
dead, the informant declaring the air. 
had been cut off since yesterday.

EXCLUSION OF ULSTER 
BAD FOR THE COUNTRY 


BY GEORGE H. MAITLAND 


Special Correspondent of 
Times in Ulster 
{Registered under Copyright Act.) 


Belfast, April 23.—With the 
Nationalists talking boycotting of 
Ulster if exelusion is consum- 
mated, some Liberals declare that 
the Ulsterites are’ now boycotting 
their fellow Protestants who re- 
fuse to join in the campaign. 
This is confirmed even by Ponar 
law ’s brother, a Canadian McGill 
graduate who is practicing medi- 
eine in Coleraine. He rather de- 
preciates drills and when invited 
to view the Unionist arsenal, said 
he was too busy. 

Clergymen who refuse to  co- 
operate with the Unionists are in 
a particularly hard position. It 
is said here that Rev. Alexander 
MeLurg left Arnstraw for To- 
ronto, and George Hanson left 
Belfast for Montreal partially. on 
that account. ‘‘Unfortunately,’’ 
said Dr. Wylie, of Coleriane Pres- 
byterian cliurch to-day, ‘‘a few 
ministers are thus placed in a po- 
sition to find themselves in pos- 
session of a call to Canada.’’ 

Dr. Wylie had trouble because 
he refused to make political an- 
nouncements from the pulpit.: It 
is understood that a rector near 
Portrush finds his flock deserting 
him beeause he refused Ulsterites 
the use of the church building. 
It is also said that Mr. Hogg, Lib-

Carranza’s Reply to Bryan Causes Excite-

in Repelling Invasion of North and Teach 
Gringoes Lesson 


» 

El Paso, April 23.—General Carranza’s reply to Secretary Bryan? caused 
greater excitement here than did the landing of marines at Vera Cruz for it is 
interpreted to mean war between Mexico and the United States, Americans 
with intimate relations in Mexico were not surprised at the rebel leader's at- 
titude for they have held ali along that his political power, would suffer less by 
opposing the United States than by appearing as the friend of the “collosus 
of the north.” 

Might Teach Gringoes Lesson. 

General Franetsco Villa was no mean factor in shaping Carranza’s reply. 
The hot-tempered conqueror of Torreon, with fifteen thousand seasoned and 
victory-flushed veterans, according, to reports from Chihuahua, declared that 
he could land 12,000 men in E) Paso in forty-eight hours, and that it might be 
wise to teach the “gringoes” a lesson at the start. : 

The Amerizans and other foreigners now on their way out of Mexico were 
summoned less on the strength of advices from Washington than on informa- 
tion given their employers by Mexican friends. These friends gave the word 
which decided some of the biggest employers that their people were unsafe

and in disregard of preceding warning

Only Dealing With Territory 
That is Under Control 
of Dictator 


— 


Washington, April 23.—After issuing 
® statement declaring the intention of 
the United States to enforce repara- 
tion, whenever and wherever the dig- 
nity of the States is flouted, President 
Wilson bent all the energies of the 
administration to-day to planning for 
operations in Mexico. The—president’s 
statement, issued after a cabinet meet- 
ing, in reply to the message received 
from the Constitutionalist chief, Gen- 
eral Carranza, declared that “we are 
now dealing only with those whom 
Huerta commands and those who 
come to his support.” 

General Carranza‘s 
made known when he 
communication from 
that he considered the. invasion ~at 
Vera Cruz and the permanency of 
American forces there as a violation 
of the rights of all Mexicans and 
against their independent sovereignty, 
Carranza added that he feared the 
landing at Vera Cruz would drag the 
Mexicans into am unequal war, which 
until now they had desired to avoid, 

President Wiison in his statement 
to-day said: “I wish to reiterate with 
the greatest earnestness the desire and 
intention of this government to re- 
spect in every possible way the sove- 
reignty and independence of the people 
of Mexico. The feeling and intention 
of the ‘government in this matter are 
rot based on politics. They go much 
deeper than that. They are based on 
a genuine friendship for the Mexican 
people and a profound interest, in the 
re-establishment of their constitutional 
system. 

“Whatever unhappy circumstances 
or necessities may arise this object 
will be held steadily in view and pur- 
sued with consistent purpose, so far 
as this government is concerned, 

“But we are dealing with facts. 
Wherever and whenever the dignity of 
the United States is flouted, its inter- 
national rights or rights of ‘its citi- 
zens invaded or its Influence’ rebuffed, 
where it has the right to attempt to 
exercise it, this goverfiment must deal 
with those actually in control, It is 
now dealing with General Huerta in 
the territory he now controls, That he 
does not rightfully control does not 
alter the fact that he Goes control it. 
We are dealing, moreover, only with 
those whom he commands and those 
who come to his support. With these

ALGARA TO RETIRE 


Charge Algara, after conferring with 
Secretary of State Bryan, sald that he 
had made formal demand for his pass- 
ports and expected to receive them late 
to-day. He sald he would leave Wash- 
ington to-night and probably would go 
to Europe. 

Algara: said that no foreign repre- 
sentative here had yet been designated 
to handle Mexican affairs, but that the 
situation would probably be turned 
over to the French embassy. 

The passports were delivered to 
Charge Algara late to-day, He then 
sald that he would leave the city to- 
night or to-morrow morning. 


TO SEIZE RAILROAD 


Tt was learned early to-day that the 
navy and war departments had made 
plans for the early seizure of the rail- 
road from Vera Cruz to Mexico City.

stated that “

| “To my own , knowledge this 
has been going on for a year,” said 
| Senator Davis. “There is a general 
tumor that men working on the Hud- 
son Bay construction, going to the Pas, 
jafter accumulating $500 or so, are 
upon by an organized bunch, arrested 
and fined. They are not allowed coun-

Take Salts to Flush Kidneys’ 


+—-and-Neutralizetrritating 


Acids 


Kidney and Bladder weakness result 
from uric acid, says a noted authority 
The kidneys filter this acid from the 
blood and pass it on to the bladder, 
where it often remains to irritate and 
inflame, causing a burning, scalding 
sensation, or setting up an irritation 
at the neck of the bladder, obliging 
you to seek relief two or three times 
during the night; The sufferer is in 
constant dread, the water passes some 
times with a scalding sensation and is 
very profiime; again, there Is diffic ulty 
in avoiding it. | 

Bladder weakness, most- folks call it, | 
because they can't contro! urination 
While it is extremely annoying aaa 
sometimes -very painful, this is real 
one of the most simple ailments |to 
overcome. -Get about four ounces of 
jJad Salts from your pharmacist and 
jtake-a tablespoonful In a glass of wa- 
ter before breakfast, continue this fer 
twe or three days. This will neutral 
ize the acids in the urine so it ne 
longer is a* source of Irritation to thé 
bladder and urinary organs which then 
Act normally again. 

Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmies

Huerta ©’ Shaugh- 
nessy, € Tnited St s 


in Mexk 


representat 
passports, and 
has recalled the xican ambassa- 


dor from Washington. This Is the 


invariable prelude to a declaration of} * 


war. The ther development is more} 
start and ts fraught with even 
graver significance It is the an- 
nouncement of General Carranza, the 
constitutional chief, in a letter ‘to] 
Secretary ‘Bryan, that he regards the 
seizure of Veta Cruz as an act of 
hostility to the Mexican nation which 
calls for resistanca « 
forces,, He 

withdraw 


part ef his 
ted States to 
instead of 
pressing Huerta for r 


insult at Tampico 


aration for the; 
to formulate his de- 
mands to the Constitutionalist gov- 
ernment in the security that..they will 


receive consideration In “a ‘spirit of 


elevated justice and conciliation.” 
This is adroitly put, but deceives np- 
hoody. It tsa tequest—tor—termat +e- 
cognition not as a belligerent but as a 
national government, — t—witt net—be 
complied with for two reasons, In the 
first place, the insult to the Almerican 
republic was offered by officers in a 
territory subject to the control: of 
Huerta and not by officers of the 
revolution, In the second place, as 
long as Huerta is in the saddle and 
vntil Carranza js constitutionally put 
In his place the latter ig not in @ 
position to afford the satisfaction de- 
manded by Washington, A thousand 
salutes by the constitutionalists would 
mean nothing Igpre than noise ‘and a 
wasteful expenditure of ammunition. 
If Carranza’s offer were accepted by 
Washington, Huerta could continue to 
insult the United States under the 
protection of the reparation furnished 
by the accommodating constitution- 
alists. : 
Apparently, Huerta is convinced that 
Carranza will join forces with him in 
resisting thé further enforcement of 
the American demands. He doubtless 
has received an intimation to t 
effect or he would not now be tak ng 
formal steps leading to a declaration 
of war, This cleariy Is what the Mc- 
tator. has been aiming at In his long 
list of studied insults to the America 
.. authorities. Realizing the hopeless- 
ness of his position, his object seems 
to have been ‘to provoke armed Inter- 
vention: and thus unite the warring 
forces of his country in hostility to the 
“@etested northern ‘union, If he and: bis

The affair happily involved no serious 
consequences, as the victim was not

MALADROIT FIRST LORD. 

Hon. ‘Winston Churchill, the - First 
Lord of the Admiralty, fs an able and 
determined man who likes to have his 
own way. The recommendations of 
the Committee on Imperial Defence 
are trivial In ‘his eyes when considered 
in opposition to his ambition to 
have all the donsinions contribute to- 
wards the support of a central navy. 
The First Lord persuaded - Premier 
Borden to pass over the defence com- 
mittee’s programme for the creation of 
fle@t units on the Pacific by Australia 
and Canada, but he had a man of 
sterner stuff to deal with when he en- 
countered the Australlan Minister of 
Defence. Mr. Churchill, {t transpires, 
aia approach Mr, Millen and suggest 
that the Commonwéalth should aban- 
don its purpose of creating an Avs- 
tralian fleet unit and revert to “the 
discarded policy of contributions.” The

aristocracy dominates the army. What-

tion dt the present time, there can be 
no doubt that In the days previous to 
the Reform Bill the aristocracy domin-

form a cabinet In 1827 had before him 
a paper furnished by the Secretary. of 
the Admiralty setting out the number

DOUBLE LICENSE FEE 


Committes Will Consider Problem 
Raised by Men Who ‘Drive Their 
Own Vehicles for Hire, 


The difficulty which has arisen out 
of the exacting of a double license fee 
in respect to vehicles plying for hire 
will be taken up by a special, civic 
committee to-morrow morning. 

Under the by-law the owners of veh- 
icles have to take out a license and 
pay @ fee for the vehicle. Drivers 
have to take out a Hoense before they 
can drive @ licensed hack or wagon 
or truck. In the case of a man driving 
his own vehicle he has to take out two 
licenses and pay the two fees, one for 
the vehicle and the other as driver, 

This Is felt to be a grievance by own< 
ers, and representations have been 
made to the council about it séveral 


time no steps have been taken to en< 
force the dual lcense, pending action

the Nippon Yusen Kalsha started the 
reduction and applied the tariff out of 
Puget Sound, it is reported other lines 
will follow this action, as was the case 
recently when a decrease of W cents 
was authorized by the Pacific confer- 
ence lines on the heels ef the first 
move by the Japanese fleets. 

The tariff was $2.50 to Japan until 
yesterday. With a $2 rate applying to 
all Japanese ports now some millers 
say there might be a comparatively 
small amount of business done, but 
that the cut will not draw a big move-

there -are very few Vic-

that old building. Tt was In August, 
1876, that a smal! band of scholars, 
and girls, attended the opening 
of that sechool—just a handful when}

After some months the teather, Mr. 8

paper, one issue of which was written 
and read every two weeks, The boys 
called their paper “The Leisure Hour,” 
and. the girls’ was named “The Hya- 
cinth.” Three boys and the same 
nuntber of girla were chosen to write. 
elit and read the papers. Different 
ones were selected for each Issue of the 
paper, so all the scholars in turn had 
the opportunity to give their ideas in 
editorials 
We had a great deal of excitement 
over those papers. I am afraid in those 
days the boys in their editorials and 
some of thelr articles were very hard

If the girls had been older and had 
more sense they might have replied, 
“The hand that rocks the cradle fs the 
hand that rules the world.” Agnes D- 
Cameron was one of those first scholars 
and the youngest of them 

Six of the girls, about two years 
after the opening of the school had an 
escapade One lovely, sunny noon 
hour (we nearly all took our lunch) 
these girls came to the conclusion that 
as it Was 80 fine they would play 
truant. Agnes Cameroir® was going to 
pilot them to a pleasant spot. They 
went down Moss street to the sea, and 
side of a bridge close to the 
shore Was a back waiter of the sea with 
logs floating around Agnes started 
to show the girls how to make a boat 
i° a log: floating in the water. After 
| ahha had gone around the pond success- 

fully, three of the other girls essayed 
ft experiment, but not being used (o 
navigating a log, they allowed ft to 
roll with the three girl# on it and one 
por them was thrown into quite deep 
Water. After a great deal of excite- 
ment the girl was finally dragged out 
by those on shore The news flew 
around town like wildfire, as what the 
girls had intended to be a pleasant 
aftérnoon might have preved moat dis- 
astrous. 

The next day the boys were drawing 
earicatures of the events, with the 
long pleats of hair standing straight 
up from the girls’ heads, to Indicate 
fear. 

There was a debating class also but 
our teacher ruled the giris out of it. 
Only once were they allowed to remain 
after school hours when the boys had 
debates to listen to a debate on “The 
mind of woman ta superior to that of 

man." When woman's mind was 
proved superior the girls were greatly 
elated, 

Even In those far-off days woman's 
suffrage was beginning to take root

SAANICH PAVING CONTRACT. 


To the Editor:—Attention is called to 
& paragraph in the Colonist purporting 
to be a statement made by the Hon, 
Thos. Taylor, minister of public works; 
re the Saanich paving contract, a por- 
tion of which L quote: 

“Hon, Thomas Taylor, minister of 
public. works, stated that he under- 
stood a new by-law. would shortly be 
submitted, the original one having been 
pronounced invalid. The position af 
the government in the matter was very 
simple. It had made a.grant of $50,000 
on ‘the understanding that the pave- 
ments were to be made for the im- 
provement of the public highway. The 
sovernment had insisted upon a cer- 
tain type of pavement being lald,” etc. 

The honorable gentleman goes on to 
infer that If that type of pavement ts 
not lald that the government may not 
come through with the grant 

it has alway's been understood that 
the government grant was to be 
$100,000, not $50,000, as quoted, but the 
statement. ¢ the hon. gentleman ts 
probably an intimation to the people 
of Saanich that unless they allow the 
paving to proceed as arranged by the 
late municipa! council the government 
erant will be withheld

with all other matters of 
the expenditure of public 
is little wonder that a

business concern that concern 
would soon become bankrupt 

Now, to return to the subject of this 
letter, the people of Saanich have evi- 
dently two propositions before them 

{1) To leave the pavement matter 
ag it now stands, and thus satisfy the 
hon. minister of public works 

(2) To so amend their paving pro- 
gramme as to conform with modern 
practice and sound business sense 

By adopting the first the govern- 
ment grant might be paid. but $50,000 
would be of no use, nor would: the 
$100,000 as originally promised In- 
deed for the people of Saanich to de- 
rive any benefit from a government 
grant, to which was fastened the first 
of these propositions, it would be nec- 
essary for the government to raise the 
grant some tens of thousands of dol- 
lars. 

By adopting the second of 
propositions the people of Saanich can

xentleman, than they could with the 
additional $100,000 government’ grant 
and be compelled to satisfy the inter- 
ests. 

I trust that every voter will look Into

THEY ARE HUMAN. 


Even Times editers are human,. as 
appears from a story attached to the 
first letter of Lord Rosebery’s publish- 
ed in that paper, says the London 
Chronicle. _ Mr. Arthur Dasent, tn his 
Life of Delane, records that when the 
famous editor was staying at Ascot for 
the race week of 1875 he wrote to his 
deputy. in Printing House square: 
“Please put In large print. a letter 
Rosebery has written upon the House 
of Lords, signed, ‘Semper ego audit 
tantum.” It is a remonstrance against 
the exclusion of. peers under 50 from 
any share in the debates. I won £20 
from him, which makes me anxious to 
oblige -him.” Lord Rosebery was then 
| comparatively obscure, so this letter 
| (his first to appear in the Times, aec- 
}cording to Mr. Dasent)- would hardly 
thave been awarded the special distinc- 


{ton of large type but for his betting 


losses to Delane.

“I think that the Island league would 
do well to take out accident insurance 
policies on a blanket plan-text season, 
having poley cover each of the 
teams entered in the series.” This re- 
mark was made this morni.g by a 
well-known soccer expert in connec- 
tion with the motion adopted at. last 
night's football gathering that some 
compensation for tite lost should be 
made to the players who were injured 
last season. There were several severe 
injuries in the senior series jast closed, 
and while several benefits have been 
held it Is thought that the league 
should be able to do something for 
the athletes who have been laid up 
through Injuries received on the play- 
ing field... Jack Fletcher, secretary of 
the Sons of England, insured a number 
of *his stars, and it is thoight that the

“Tris played a heady game of high 
finance In order to attain his present 
financial heights. While enjoying a good 
time with the globe trotters he carried 
ow -negotiations with the Federal 
league, but when it came to the show- 
down Speaker demaniled a five years’ 
contract at a salary that caused Presi- 
dent Gilmore, of the “Feds,” to fall in 
a faint.*Having thus put the Federal 
league's executive temporarily out of 
commission, Tris opened negotiations 
with his old elub, and by playing both 
ends against the middle managed to 
cop for himself the top-notch salary of 
ahe game. 

Tris began playing ball professionally: 
with Cleburne, Tex., in the North Texas 
league, in 1906, He started as a pitcher, 
but-was soon dispatched to the out- 
field, Where he has ever since remained. 
In 1907 te was with Houston, in the 
Texas league. In the fall of 1907 he was 
purchased by Boston for $760, but the 
Red Sox manager thought so Nttle of 
his find that he swapped ‘him to Little 
Rock in payment for the rent of the 
Arkansas grounds as training quarters; 
Speaker batted :350 in the Southern 
league, and toward the close of the 
season Boston bought’him back for 
$500. During his first full season with 
the Red Sox, 1909, Speaker swatted .309. 
In 1910 he fattened tris batting average 
te .340. In 1911 he batted 827, in 1912-he 
finished third to.Cobb and Juckson

* Puzzle of the Infeétion, 

When, therefore, the flea became 
thirsty again and inserted its “pricker” 
and mandibles once more into rat or 
man, hgy did it infect: its new host? 
That was the puzzle, and it has baffled 
the Indian plague research commission 
and many other scientific workers all 
over the world for nearly a decade, 

The problem has now been. solved 
by Mr, A. W. Bacot, entomologist to the} 
Lister institute, and Dr. ¢. J. Martin,| 
F. R. 8, director of the institute, who, 
with an advisory committee of which 
he is & member, has exercised general 


control over the work of the 
mission, 


eom- 
Many men study jinsects, but Mr, 
Racot breeds them, and the operation 
is far more delicate. and difficult ‘than 
the management of a stud farm. For a 
long time he and Dr. Martin studied 
the Lister institute the mechanism 
of the transmission of plague by fleas. 
At lenath they noticed with some sur- 
prise that, though certain plague in- 
fected fleas sucked vigorously at the] 
shaven abdomen of rats, no blood ent- 
ered their stomachs. That discovery 
led to the solution of the mystery. The 
way plague was actually, transmitted 
ir India-and.elsewhere was made clear 
at last.

other Insects, has at the opening of its

which closes during the 
digestion, 

What happens is that the jellylike 
lumps of germs drift forward from the 
stomach Into this chamber and fill it 
up completely. The valve is choked and 
no food can pass into the stomach, The 
wretched flea gets thirsty and tries In

Heat Kills Starving Flea, 


Fleas seem able to go. without food 
in a suitable temperature and atmoe- 
phere, for an almost incredible period, 
even as long as four months; but heat 
soon kills a starving flea with Its gullet 
plugged up, Deprived of fresh fluid, 
the inseet quickly shrivels in a hot, 
dry élimate, Thus, it fs believed, we 
know at last exactly why in northern 
and central India plague «epidemics 
abruptly cease when the hot weather 
begins, The infected and foodless 
fleas become desiccated and expire, and. 
plague vanishes for another few 
months.

Canada's Time Coming. 

The 1907 “peak” of 
the Immigration for the United 
States, with In the follow- 
ing year this dropped to 354,183, or 75

year was the

cent rose 


figure until 1913, ~when it Jumped to 
1,141,000, - Sa, 

To Canada in 1907 there came 164,- 
649 settlers, which in 1908 dropped.to 
69,765. After that there came a‘steady 
increase until’ by 1912 the number 
reached 216,568, and “last year there 
were 264,556, This was by far the 
greatest number of settlers that ever 
came to Canada, while the railway 
returns showed that a large propor- 


tion of the settlers went to the west. 


For general passenger traffic, how- 
ever, it {6 stated that the prospects 
are aboht average, while enquiries and 
bookings have shown ‘a marked in- 
crease during the past few weeks. 


At the White Star Dominion offices 
it was stated that the immigrant pros- 
rects were not good, but that other 
bookings were well up to the mark, 
with prospects for a fairly satisfact- 
ory season, especially after the Mon- 
treal navigation season opened. 

Stmilar conditions were spoken of 
at the C. P. R. steamship offices, al- 
though they expected a large number 
of British settlers during the year. In 
contrast te this it was stated that their 
eastbound vessela were taking back 
large numbers of foreigners from Can- 
ada and the United States, who, find- 
ing employment slack and the cost of 
living high on this continent were re- 
turning home with their savings. 

The Empress of Ireland, which sails 
from Halifax to-morrow, will take al- 
most a-record ‘third class Ist for this 
season of the year, with 800 such pas- 
sengers. Four hundred of these are 
foreigners ‘from , the United States, 
who are golng home to get away from 
unemployment and high prices. They 
have made up a big party, and a 
majority of them come. from mining 
districts, where labor troubles and 
slack trade left them idle. A number 
of others are foreignérs who have spent 
some years in Canada and are going 
home, dissatisfied with present condi- 
tions. 

At the Canadian Northern an& dther 
steamship offices the same tale was 
told, light Immigration business, but 
fair prospects for an average season,

TO-DAY IN CANADIAN 
HISTORY

its beauty, its factories and quarries,

its eighty-seventh birth- 
festival of St 


and its agricultural college, 
to-day 


for it 


brase 


day, Was on the 


George in 1827 that the tree-felling ex- 
ercises were held which marked the 
formal founding of the Royal City 


John Galt and Dr.. Dunlop, the found- 
ers of Guelph, drank a toast to its fu- 
ture prosperity in good old Scotch, and 
the, spot in a forest which was destined 
to become the site of a city was christ- 
ened in honor of that\ royal race which 
was transplanted from Italy to Ger- 
many in the eleventh century, became 
the ruling power In several countries, 
and still continues in the two lines of 
Brunswick, the royal in England and 
the ducal In Germafy. The ceremonies 
that marked Guelph's natal day be- 
gan when Galt, the distinguished 
Scotch novelist who was then commis- 
sioner of the Canada company, struck 
a blow with an axe on a lordly maple 


they were interested participants in the 
ceremony.. Dr. Dunlop then proposed 
a toast, to which the commissioner re- 
sponded, and which was toudly ap- 
plauded by the workmen... Then the 
bottle of Scotch went the rounds, and 
the exercises were concluded with a 
smacking of lips and the wiping there- 
of with the backs of hairy and horny 
hands. John Galt, the.father of Guelph, 
was born at Irving, Ayrshire, in 1779, 
and died in Greenock in 1839. In addi- 
tion to his labors as a Canadian pio- 
neer, he wrote several novels which en- 
joyed a widespread popularity. Guelph's 
growth since its founding has been 
“slow but sure,” and in 1911 the popu-

To further this project 
the oOWners interested met in the office 
ot H. F. Puitlen last and dis- 
cussed the matter It was the opinion 
of all those present that the work was 
a desirable one The proposal is to 
have ten feet taken off the lands on 
each side and thrown into the street, 
and then to have the whole paved, — 

It decided to try to have 
owners accept a uniform price 
land which will have to be taken, 
as to avold the cost and the delay of 
arbitration proceedings, 

It will necessary {to have an

annual meetings of which take place break out with annoying frequency.| 
within the next month. Such a case was that of the daughter

arated to meet again as soon as the | «sy tittlc three-year-old daughter suf- 
ward meetings have been held, fered frequently from scalp disease, 
ng WER and try as we would, we could not rid 
the little one of this. We tried every- 
thing we could think of, but falled to) 
effect a cure, until we were advised to) 
try Zam-Buk, This balm seemed en- 
tirely different to anything we had 
ever tried before, and from first apply- 
ing It there was a marked improvement. 
The sores became less inflamed and less 
irritable. After a few days, they ceased 
to trouble the child; and in less than a 
fortnight from first commencing with 
Zam-Buk they were completely healed, 
In view of these facts I feel it my 
duty. to let mothers know how bene- 
ficial Zam-Buk is.” 

There Is no doubt that for scalp 
sores, ringworm, ulcers, abscesses, cold’ 
Gracks, chapped hands, frost-bite and 
similar sores, Zam-Buk is absolutely 
without equal. It is just as good for 
Piles, varicose sores, poisoned wounds, 
cuts, burns and scalds. Rubbed well tn 
over the effected part, it cures rheuma- 
tlam, sciatica, etc., etc., and rubbed into 
the chest it relieves the tightness and 
feeling of welght due to contracting 
bad cold. All druggists and stores sell 
So. box, or post free from Zam-Buk

Wagner Music Heard to Great Ad- 
vantage in Event Arranged by 
Oscar Goldschmidt. 


Wagner music Is not often to be 
heard in Victoria, and the large audi- 
ence which assembled Tuesday eyen- 
ing in’ the Alexandra baliroom for 
Oscar Goldschmidt’s recital was con- 
fidently assured of an exceptional musi. 
cal treat. To produce some of the best 
known operatic soll and choruses by. 
amateur effort is an ambitious attempt, 
but last night’s programme was 
most creditably carried out, and mas- 
ter and public alike are to be congratu- 
tated. * 

Mrs,. Macdonald Fahey has seldom 
been heard to better advantage than 
she was tn the fine solo, “O Hall. of 
Song.” from Tanahauser, Her fine 
presence, and the power and arttatic 
finish of her singing combine to make 
her an excellent Wagner heroine, and 
she was recalled again and again until | at
